Chapter 164: Bookmarks

Finding someone can be a hassle, especially if the missing person doesn't want to be found.

Bai Yanliang, who stepped into Ren Wudao's room, slowly looked around.

It can be seen that Ren Wudao is a person who lives a very regular life.

Generally speaking, men's bedrooms are not tidy to the point of being meticulous, Ren Wudao is obviously an exception, and similarly, Bai Yanliang is also an exception.

If there was anything in Ren Wudao's room that looked messy, it was probably the only place......

Bai Yanliang's gaze turned to the bookshelf, medicine, psychology, traceology, geography, suspense, science fantasy magazines, ancient classics...... Ren Wudao's involvement is very extensive.

But what he has been reading recently should be that one.

Bai Yanliang pulled out the book from the bookshelf, which was still a little bit close to being completely stuffed in.

The title of the book is "The Explanation of Consciousness".

Coincidentally, Bai Yanliang happened to have read this book as well.

This is a philosophical work by a cognitive scientist in psychology, neuroscience, computer science, and philosophy, and the title of the book is clear: consciousness.

And the reason why Bai Yanliang is interested in this book is because he is really boring in a mental hospital, and secondly, because he ...... He was very interested in a certain point of view of the author.

The book "The Explanation of Consciousness" is obviously different from traditional phenomenology, and one of the points that interests Bai Yanliang the most is that traditional phenomenology takes the perspective of the first person, that is, "me", to study and analyze "things themselves".

"The Explanation of Consciousness" takes this concept up a bit and uses the perspective of "we".

The author mentions that in the process of studying consciousness, it is not possible to stop at the "third person", but to start from the third person and obtain the truth about the first person in a roundabout way.

Some phenomena can be summarized in this, and the author divides them into three categories.

The first category is the experience of the external world, such as sights, sounds, smells, touches, and so on.

The second category is the experience of the inner world, such as fantasies, dreams, and so on.

And the third category, which is the one that Bai Yanliang is most interested in.

It is the experience of emotions and feelings, such as physical pain, itching, hunger, etc., as well as human emotions, joys, sorrows, and so on.

Bai Yanliang wanted to find the root cause of his emotional abnormality, so he would come into contact with this kind of philosophy book that he was not too interested in, but he didn't expect Ren Wudao to be interested in it.

Moreover, after turning the page, there are footnotes left in many places, and the handwriting is smart and elegant, which is written by Ren Wudao himself, which can see the seriousness of his reading.

"Has Ren Wudao always been interested in philosophy books?" Bai Yanliang turned his head and asked.

Yu Sheng shook his head and looked at the book in Bai Yanliang's hand, "My brother once said that philosophy is the most stupid and esoteric discipline in the world, and geniuses will become crazy after long-term contact, and he has always regarded philosophy books as fantasy. ”

The hobby is really unique......

Bai Yanliang turned around and closed the book.

At this point, he suddenly noticed that there was a place in the book that didn't fit neatly.

After opening it again, he found out why.

Inside that page was a very thin bookmark.

Bai Yanliang picked up the bookmark and looked at it carefully, this bookmark is very new, it is transparent throughout, only the length of the little finger, but the workmanship is quite exquisite.

After thinking about it, Bai Yanliang did a very unseemly thing.

Rummaging through trash cans.

Although digging through the trash is a dirty and tiring job, it is very useful.

Yu Sheng wanted to come to help, but was stopped by Bai Yanliang, who wore plastic gloves and took out all the things inside.

In fact, this is not the case, Ren Wudao's trash can is probably cleaner than most people's desktops, except for a few scraps of paper and packaging bags, there is nothing superfluous at all.

But what Bai Yanliang was looking for was a packaging bag.

"There shouldn't be many places where this thing is sold."

Bai Yanliang held the transparent packaging of the bookmark in his hand, and four small words were printed on the corner of the package: Mercury Night.

A small transparent bookmark, named Mercury Night, is also quite troublesome.

Yu Sheng's brows furrowed slightly, this ...... It's not like Ren Wudao's style.

He hated this kind of flashy stuff very much, and with Yu Sheng's understanding of Ren Wudao, if he really wanted to buy a bookmark, he would definitely buy the most traditional and practical one.

It's not this thing that's full of middle two breath.

Bai Yanliang was relatively calm, he picked up his mobile phone and called Gao Fei.

"Do me a favor."

"Okay! What's up? Goofy's voice was a little sinister, more of a gossip.

When he saw Bai Yanliang and Yu Sheng leaving together, if this kid hadn't covered his mouth, he would have laughed out loud, he really couldn't imagine Bai Yanliang dating a woman.

"Find out where a bookmark called Mercury Night was made and where is it sold?"

"Huh?" Gao Fei was stunned, "Brother Bai, are you playing with me?" How can I check this, I am a forensic doctor, not an Internet policeman...... And what kind of mercury night, it sounds like a nightclub......"

"Mercury night?"

Bai Yanliang clearly heard that another man's voice sounded beside Gao Fei, who was singing.

Gao Fei was also stunned, he looked at He Yige suspiciously: "Have you heard of it?" ”

He Yige, who had just come out of the courtyard gate, smiled: "By chance, it's a Qing bar, and I once went there with my friends to drink two glasses." ”

"Oh......" Goofy was a little disappointed, "it's a bar, and the mercury night we were talking about is the name of a bookmark." ”

"Hahaha." He Yige laughed, "That's even more right, that bookmark is a gift for Mercury Night, and it is not sold by the outside world." ”

Bai Yanliang, who had been listening to the conversation between the two on the other end of the phone, also smiled, what a coincidence.

"Goofy, give the phone to Mr. He."

Gao Fei glanced at He Yige and handed over the phone.

"Hey, Mr. Bai."

"Hello, Mr. He, I won't be polite, if you can, can you please take us to that mercury night?"

He Yige was a little surprised, he thought about it silently, but still agreed.

"No problem, then...... Where am I looking for you? Mr. Bai? ”

"You can wait for me at home, I'll pick you up......"

Hanging up the phone, Bai Yanliang said to Yu Sheng with a smile: "Good luck." ”

It was difficult for Yu Sheng to laugh, although Bai Yanliang found a clue as soon as he came, but this clue made Yu Sheng's inner uneasiness stronger and stronger.

Because Ren Wudao is not a person who can go to bars at all.

Even if it is quieter, he should not go to the Qing bar, which focuses on light music, because ...... He doesn't drink at all.

Ren Wudao before his disappearance always made Yu Sheng feel that he was a little ...... Not like himself.
